The Advantages Of Wealth
<view this essay>.... wealth; Freedom.
With wealth comes choice, and with choice comes opportunity; the basis of the American dream. Wealth buys opportunity from the very start. An infant born into a wealthy family begins its life a league ahead of its poverty stricken counterpart. This is not so much because of the proximity of money, but because of what that money can do. Having ample funds allows the infants parents the freedom to spend more time with the child and it also makes the entrance of the baby much less traumatic for the family.

recreational amenities, and night life will also have many more people - people

in just ten years! The year 2000's estimation of the population of Mexico

Since the 1930's, improved living conditions and expanded health services
has cut the death rate by more than half, thus causing the population to

Voiced Opinion
<view this essay>.... a few people prefer to illustrate their individual personalities, instead of being “just another sheep in the herd.” They may choose to wear apparel that is, at the least, distinct from the population around them. The freethinking female may choose to embellish a long, black broomstick skirt, with her favorite Marilyn Manson T-shirt, accessorized by her over worn combat boots. She may also choose to wear darker make up to show her beauty in a gothic fashion. An open-minded male may adorn a pair of well-adapted denim jeans with holes in the knees.
